Hello All,

I've seen that a lot of people have suggested oatmeal as a great breakfast idea, but I can't seem to find the points value for it.

I live in Korea right now and so many low fat, low sugar things and brands from home can be extremely difficult to find. So, you really have to work with what you can find. They don't really sell egg subsitutes or many different kinds of cheese and it's also really hard to find whole grain bread. Another problem is that since all of the nutritional facts and ingredients on food packaging is written in Korean, I don't always know what the fat, calories, and fiber contents are.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!!

I serving plain oatmeal is 2-3 points.

You need some good Korean friends to help you out!

I'm working on that. My boyfriend and I just moved to a new city and are working on meeting more people. Since I'm an instructor at a university here, we're told that too much socializing with the undergrad students is a no go. However, one of the masters students I've met is really eager to help out, it's good for me, and good for her English.

Oh good Abby--I have lived abroad before--in Europe and Asia too..I know how terribly difficult the most mundane of tasks can be...what an exciting adventure!! enjoy your time there!
